I wanted bagpipes. The price shut me down.

Was that an auto-correct of “bagpuss”?

Others: "I bought a new bass. I spent big money.  I failed. "

Thread inhabitants "oh well done! Share some photos. It's lovely!"

 

Bass_dinger: "I bought a recorder. I spent £17. It's only Tier 2"

Thread inhabitants "arghhh. Terrible idea, terrible instrument."

 

 

To ensure that this thread is not derailed, I will find (or start) a recorder thread - and everyone can insult the instrument over there, instead!  Bring your bagpipes too.

I suppose that I should confess that a few years ago, I bought Mrs Zero a recorder. The current Mrs Zero, that is, not one of the former ones, so it wasn't some form of punishment.

Not a “pitty party” between Christmas & new years I had to move a lot of bass equipment sadly, due to the financial strain and illness. So I may be out shortly unfortunately as I have to get some sort of DI/Pre Amp to get gigging again properly. 

Whilst not wishing to put temptation in the path of a fellow musician (but immediately doing so…) I have a nice Sansamp for sale
